innuSPEED Soil DNA Extraction Kit
- Extraction of microbial DNA from soil samples
- Fast and efficient homogenization with beads
- High-quality DNA free of inhibitors such as humic acids
The innuSPEED Soil DNA Kit was developed for the isolation of microbial DNA from soil samples. The extraction combines rapid homogenization of extremely complex starting material with efficient digestion of microbial cell walls in specially developed Lysis Tubes using a SpeedMill homogenizer.
After breaking down the material mechanically followed by a thermal lysis step, the soil DNA is selectively bound to the surface of a Spin Filter membrane. A novel wash buffer efficiently removes inhibitors such as humic acids. Finally, DNA is desorbed from the membrane through the addition of a low-salt buffer.
Yield and quality of the isolated soil DNA are excellent.
